Product Description:
Emergent Computation emphasizes the interrelationship of the
different classes of languages studied in mathematical linguistics
(regular, context-free, context-sensitive, and type 0) with aspects to
the biochemistry of DNA, RNA, and proteins. In addition, aspects of
sequential machines such as parity checking and semi-groups are
extended to the study of the Biochemistry of DNA, RNA, and proteins.
Mention is also made of the relationship of algebraic topology, knot
theory, complex fields, quaternions, and universal turing machines and
the biochemistry of DNA, RNA, and proteins.
Emergent Computation tries to avoid an emphasis upon mathematical abstraction (

Mention is also made of the relationship of algebraic topology, knot

the biochemistry of DNA, RNA, and proteins. Emergent Computation tries
to avoid an emphasis upon mathematical abstraction ("elegance") at the
expense of ignoring scientific facts known to Biochemists. Emergent
Computation is based entirely upon papers published by scientists in
well-known and respected professional journals. These papers are based
upon current research. A few examples of what is not ignored to gain
"elegance": - DNA exists as triple and quadruple strands - Watson-Crick
complementary bases have mismatches - There can be more than four bases
in DNA - There are more than sixty-four codons - There may be more that
twenty amino acids in proteins While Emergent Computation emphasizes
bioinformatics applications, the last chapter studies mathematical
linguistics applied to areas such as languages found in birds, insects,
medical applications, anthropology, etc. Emergent Computation tries to
avoid unnecessary mathematical abstraction while still being rigorous.
The demands made upon the knowledge of chemistry or mathematics is
minimized as well. The collected technical references are valuable in
itself for additional reading.
